Featuring source flip technology in the 3.3 mm by 3.3 mm PowerPAK® 1212-F package, the Vishay Siliconix SiSD5300DN provides best in class on-resistance of 0.71 mΩ at 10 V and on-resistance times gate charge — a critical figure of merit (FOM) for MOSFETs used in switching applications — of 42 mΩ*nC.

Key Points: 
  • Featuring source flip technology in the 3.3 mm by 3.3 mm PowerPAK® 1212-F package, the Vishay Siliconix SiSD5300DN provides best in class on-resistance of 0.71 mΩ at 10 V and on-resistance times gate charge — a critical figure of merit (FOM) for MOSFETs used in switching applications — of 42 mΩ*nC.
  • Occupying the same footprint as the PowerPAK 1212-8S, the device released today offers 18 % lower on-resistance to increase power density, while its source flip technology reduces thermal resistance by 63 °C/W to 56 °C/W.
  • PowerPAK 1212-F source flip technology reverses the usual proportions of the ground and source pads, extending the area of the ground pad to provide a more efficient thermal dissipation path and thus promoting cooler operation.
  • At the same time, the PowerPAK 1212-F minimizes the extent of the switching area, which helps to reduce the impact of trace noise.
